Synopsis
Neil Gaiman has emerged as one of the most influential literary figures of the twenty-first century. Featuring original scholarly essays covering a broad range of Gaiman's prolific output, this collection includes readings of Gaiman's novels, explores his children's books, investigates the online short story collection A Calendar of Tales, and looks carefully at Gaiman's return to the serial comic book form with Sandman: Overture., Neil Gaiman has emerged as one of the most influential literary figures of the 21st century. To borrow a phrase from his viral 2012 University of the Arts commencement speech, Gaiman "makes good art," from his graphic novels to his social media collaborations, award-winning fantasy fiction and beloved children's books. This collection of new essays examines a range of Gaiman's prolific output, with readings of the novels American Gods, Anansi Boys, The Graveyard Book and The Ocean at the End of the Lane . Children's books The Wolves in the Walls and Blueberry Girl and the online short story collection A Calendar of Tales are discussed. Gaiman's return to the serial comic book form with Sandman: Overture is covered, and artist JH Williams III contributes an exclusive interview about his collaboration with Gaiman on Overture . Cartoonist Judd Winick offers a personal essay on his connection to Gaiman's work.
